Each Intel Xeon E5-2600 v4 family processor socket contains four memory channels per installed processor with three DIMMs per channel for a total of twelve DIMMs or a grand total of twenty-four DIMMs for the server. Only half of the DIMM slots are available when only one processor is installed.

Memory population guidelines:Do not mix RDIMMs or LRDIMMs.A minimum of one DIMM is required per server.Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.When two processors are installed, balance the DIMMs across the two processors.Populate DIMMs from heaviest load (quad-rank) to lightest load (single-rank) within a channel. Heaviest load (DIMM with most ranks) within a channel goes furthest from the processor.DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.The maximum memory capacity is a function of the memory type and number of installed processors.HP memory from previous generation servers is not compatible and will not work with the DL360 Gen9 server.
